Gulliver - Large-Scale Vehicular Prototyping using Open Source Testbeds of Miniature Vehicles

Period

Vehicular system designers often use simulation tools in order to prove vehicular systems.The computational complexity of detailed simulations limits the scale of such testings.Therefore, it is often the case that the first full-scale demonstrations of new concepts for vehicular systems are done in proving grounds and testing tracks. Gulliver can be a platform for studying vehicular systems on a large scale open source test-bed of low cost miniature vehicles that use wireless communication and are equipped with onboard sensors. The approach provides a simpler yet detailed investigation of vehicular systems. The Gulliver platform, with its design and a set of applications that could be demonstrated by it, allows the design of vehicular systems to focus on the cyber-physical aspects of the studied problems.
